In the report, Gartner describes Enterprise Mobility Management (EMM) as “the ‘glue’ that connects mobile devices to their enterprise infrastructure.” As companies continue to invest in mobilizing their data and processes, and building out the Enterprise of Things (EoT), this “glue” will do more, and become even more important to business operations. Going forward, every enterprise will need an EMM solution—and one that goes beyond basic mobility management. Those that want the best will choose BlackBerry.

BlackBerry’s continued leadership in enterprise software and services means that partners align themselves with our powerful and expanding platform. Through our BlackBerry Enterprise Partner Program for Solutions Providers, we offer you the opportunity to grow your business while you help your customers manage and secure their mobile and connected devices, communication, and data with an end-to-end solution. (Our partner program also recently won an award.)

Secure, Manage, and Control Today and Tomorrow

BlackBerry Enterprise Portfolio supports the way we work today, giving IT an improved ability to secure, manage and control the mobile enterprise. Our software and services run on every major operating system, across any network.

We knew enterprises would need rock-solid EMM to secure devices, data, and content, but also a way to handle the coming EoT, to provide secure messaging and other communication and collaboration tools, and to stay ahead of the constantly evolving security threats.

That vision becomes reality in the BlackBerry Enterprise Portfolio. Today’s update continues to execute on that plan.

Updates Help Clients Maximize Business Potential

BlackBerry enables enterprises to work in ways that work for them. Our true cross-platform solution suite provides mobility and flexibility, collaboration tools, seamless productivity, and the best security in the business.
